Recently, I've been doing just one easy run per week as a way to maintain endurance. This has worked surprisingly well. In fact, after my recent 12-day layoff from all exercise (other than walking), I went out and jogged a while with no problem.
I don't think running long one day per week is necessarily optimal for endurance, but I just wanted to try and see if it could be done. I will probably fiddle around more with endurance frequency in 2008.
